Geography
1 answer:
andrew-mc [135]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The weather and climate are affected in a way that the high elevations decrease temperature and block wind and storm patterns.

Explanation:

A is correct because with increasing elevation the temperature gradually drops, usually around 1 degree Celsius per 100 m, and also manages to block the winds and storm patterns, managing to influence the local or even regional climate significantly.

B is not correct because it is a fact that the higher the elevation the lower the temperature is.

C is not correct because the temperature drops with an increased elevation, not the other way around.

D is not correct because the places of high elevation have a big impact on the wind and storm patterns.

What type of forest stays green all year
Inga [223]
I agree with the answer above - boreal forests are the kind of forests that remain green all year, because evergreen trees can be found there. Opposite of this, temperate forests do not stay green all year, because they have deciduous trees, which means their leaves fall off.
